It might not be an actual leak per-se... I've noticed in busy areas that the viewer will often hit a *lot* of parallel HTTP texture fetches. I'm not sure if there's a hard limit there, because my texture console can easily overflow with active texture-fetches. That's... what... 30+ and I'm guessing a minimum of two file-handles each right there (and gut feeling says there's probably closer to 3 involved).
If there's no cap on the number of parallel HTTP texture fetches (or the cap is too large), then you'll see more simultaneous fetches for higher-latency users (as an artifact of each HTTP session taking longer to complete), all other things being equal. If that is the case, then it's likely to have a far lower incidence if you're on the continental USA.
